​

Registrations

​

By registering, the participant expressly agrees to these general terms and conditions.

​

The minimum age for participation in a weekend is 18 years. 

​

The 4th Musketeer has the right to refuse the registration of participants.

​

A minimum number of participants applies for a weekend. The 4th Musketeer reserves the right to cancel the weekend if there are too few registrations. If this is the case, you will be informed no later than 1 month before departure. The paid registration fee will be refunded.

​

Suppose the participant has registered for a weekend for which the participant must book a flight ticket. In that case, the participant may not book a ticket until the 4th Musketeer has indicated whether the weekend will go ahead. Naturally, the aim is to report whether the weekend will take place as quickly as possible. The 4th Musketeer cannot be held liable for the costs of a flight ticket in the event of cancellation if a participant has booked the ticket too early.

​

In the event of force majeure, the 4th Musketeer has the right to cancel the weekend or to adjust it before or during the weekend without the 4th Musketeer being held liable for any damage. Force majeure occurs when abnormal and unforeseen circumstances arise that are independent of the will of the person invoking them and the consequences of which cannot be avoided, despite all precautions. This includes war, natural disasters, political unrest, general scarcity, strikes, epidemics, states of emergency or similar situations. In this case, there will be no refund of the registration fee.

​

In some cases, allergies and dietary requirements can be considered, after prior notification to the 4th Musketeer. However, full implementation cannot be guaranteed, and special diets will not be accommodated unless medically necessary, Any additional costs will be borne by the participant. A separate invoice will be sent for this.

​

Participation entails additional costs for the participant that are at the participant's own expense, such as the costs for transport to the starting location of the weekend, the necessary equipment, a visa, and any necessary vaccinations (if required).

​

PAYMENT AND CANCELLATION

​

Cancellations are handled through the ARISEZA office. Please also contact the ARISEZA office if you are unfortunately no longer able to participate in the activity you have booked.

Media

​

Media images are made during an event. These images, in which the participant may appear, can be used for promotional purposes. The participant does not receive any compensation for this.

​

Photos and films that can be taken during the weekend are primarily intended to be shared with the participants of that weekend. Secondary, images can be used for promotional purposes (online).
 

The 4th Musketeer may record every participant in the Activity during and at any time on videotape, audiotape, or photograph, and may use the applicant’s name, voice, or testimonial without restriction for the future promotional purpose of the 4th Musketeer unless stated otherwise in writing.

​

If images of you are not allowed to appear online or if you subsequently see published images in which you appear and do not wish to see them published, please let us know as soon as possible.

​

An Event

​

If the participant causes such a nuisance that it makes or could make the implementation of the weekend significantly more difficult or endangers the safety of himself or others or deals with nature and the environment in an irresponsible manner, the participant's (further) participation in the weekend will be excluded. All resulting additional costs will be borne by the excluded participant.

​

If the participant deviates from the recommended route or the recommended time or travel schedule and therefore must incur additional costs, these costs will be borne by the participant.

​

Participants are not permitted to smoke and/or use narcotics during the weekend. Alcoholic drinks are only permitted if they are made available by the 4th Musketeer.

​

Participants are obliged to bring all resources and materials prescribed in the packing list drawn up for the weekend. The participant is responsible for providing materials of good quality. It is not permitted to bring food and drinks other than the prescribed amount of drinking water.

​

It is not permitted to take and/or use a watch, telephone, photo, and film equipment, other than two charged telephones per team which can be stored in an emergency kit issued for this purpose. In an emergency, one of these telephones can be used according to the instructions provided.

​

The participant is obliged to use the material made available in a manner for which it is intended by virtue of its nature and the agreement. The participant must report any defects upon receipt of the material and have them recorded. The participant may not make any changes to the material or allow it to be used by third parties without permission from the 4th Musketeer. The participant will inform the 4th Musketeer as soon as possible, but no later than the end of the weekend, of any damage or loss of materials. The participant will hand over the material made available to a representative of the 4th Musketeer at the previously agreed location at the end of the weekend, in the same condition as the participant received it and as clean as possible. If necessary, the 4th Musketeer is entitled to charge the participant additional costs for cleaning, searches, transport and storage of materials, missing person reports and the like.

​

The 4th Musketeer will take at least one first aider with him during the weekend. This first aider is authorised to decide during a weekend to terminate a participant's participation if, in the opinion of the first aider, continuation is no longer justified.

The 4th Musketeer can decide to set time limits and remove participants from a weekend if these limits are unmet.

​

The 4th Musketeer can decide to adjust the route, shorten it or cancel a weekend entirely if the (safety) situation makes this necessary, in the opinion of the 4th Musketeer.

​

The 4th Musketeer also reserves the right to change start and/or end times.

​
